The Californication rocker previously spoke of his smile in a Twitter exchange with American model Chrissy Teigen. 

In July 2020, Chrissy Tweeted: 'Am I too old for a little diamond on my nose? You don’t have to tell me I’m not old! I know I’m not olllllld but you know what I’m saying. Please be honest lol.' 

Flea playfully responded: 'Hell no. I got gold teeth in my mid fifties. Grow into being a pirate.'

The sighting comes weeks after Flea celebrated the arrival of his first child with fashion designer Melody on December 12.

The newborn, whose name has not yet been revealed, is the first for Ehsani and the third for the musician, who shares daughter Clara, 34, with ex-wife Loesha Zeviar, and 17-year-old Sunny Bebop with Frankie Rayder. 

Flea married the fashion designer in 2019 in a lavish ceremony in Los Angeles, with Elshani calling it her 'best collaboration to date'.
